You could see the basic exercises of the Art of Natural Dressage as the beginnings of establishing a mutual language between human and horse. Not based on fear, pressure or corrections, but instead on a mutual desire to talk to connect with each other and to bring the other joy in that communication.
It's nothing spectacular or astonishing, it's simply enjoying establishing a common language together!

I've been studying natural horsemanship and classical dressage that relies on traditional tack sort of separately for years, but I just discovered natural dressage on the internet and am VERY interested in making the jump and trying natural reinforcement integrated into my riding. Thanks for your videos.

my pony merlin was a nightmare before I started positive reinforcement.!! Now he can turn on the haunches back up halt and this has transferred into our riding too!

Hey, I'm working on teaching my girls some of this stuff. I'm LOVING your tack! The Saddle and Neck rein are really beautiful!
Where did you get your things? Is there a specific brand? A Price estimate? Thanks!

Nice vid! Although...during the turn on the fore, the pony did not do a jambette, it was shapp.
Good work girls!!

@soriahmitchell It appears to me that it is somekind of a treeless saddle.
